getting rid of characters in database

Hello,

I have a problem with addresses in a database column that contain the
<return> character (possibly in Macintosh encoding...).

Is there an update query I can run on the column to "zap" the unwanted
character? I am not very good at regular expressions...

The fact that it is still in there is pretty strange because I had
cleaned everything up before importing the text file. Any ways you can
imagine all by yourselves the havoc it creates when exporting reports...
=:-D

Cheers

Tony
